Part 1 - Getting Started

Set up your developer accounts and get your Hub, screenshots and app design ready.

You'll register your Google Play and Apple developer accounts, check your Hub on mobile, prepare your store screenshots and listing details, and design your app icon, launch screen and status bar in the Membership.io builder. Start early, because developer account approval can take 2 to 3 weeks.

➡️ Read Part 1: Getting Started

Part 2 - Create Credentials

Connect your developer accounts to Membership.io and create your app in both stores.

You'll create the keys Membership.io needs to build and upload your app, create your app in App Store Connect and Google Play Console, set up push notifications, and check that everything is filled in under your builder settings.

➡️ Read Part 2: Create Credentials

Part 3 - Configure Your App

Get your App Store Connect and Google Play Console listings ready.

You'll work through every section of both store listings, including your description, screenshots, privacy details and a demo login for reviewers, so nothing is missing when you build.

Part 4 - Build and Publish Your App

Build your app, test it and submit it for review.

You'll trigger your first build and fix any errors, install the app on your own iPhone and Android device, and submit it to Apple and Google for review.
